User Agent List

A User Agent is a request header (User-Agent) that lets servers identify the application, operating system, vendor, and version of the requesting client. For developers, it's essential for ensuring browser compatibility and bypassing basic bot detection systems.

Browsers have aggressive release cycles. Rotating User Agents is critical for web scraping and automation. By randomizing the User Agent header, you mimic organic traffic and reduce the risk of being blocked by

WAFs

(Web Application Firewalls) or anti-bot measures. You can use this list to rotate the User Agent header in your project.

This list is self-updating. We automatically fetch the latest user agents from reliable sources to ensure the list remains current.

You can use the copy icon in the top right corner of the terminal to copy the entire list as JSON. You can then use it in your code, for example, when setting the User-Agent header in an HTTP request.

Yes, you can get the full list in the following endpoint:

It's CORS-enabled and ready for direct integration into any frontend or backend application, ensuring your project always has access to the most up-to-date strings.

You can manually set the header in Puppeteer or Playwright using a random string from this list. However, scaling a Headless Browser infrastructure is complex. Microlink API runs a remote Headless Chrome instance for you, automatically handling User Agent rotation, proxy management, and browser fingerprinting so you never get blocked.

Yes. The list distinguishes between Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux) and Mobile (Android, iOS) strings. Using a Mobile User Agent is often effective for scraping simpler HTML versions of complex websites or testing responsive designs.
